Dive Review of
Buddy Dive Resort in
Bonaire

San Diego, California; Freeport, Grand Bahama; Keys in Florida; lakes and
quarries in Illinois

Dive Conditions

Return to surface with 500 PSI; we did some shore diving where we did dive
our own profiles but not from the boat trips.  

There were special tanks on shore and on the boat.  Conditions were good
for lots of shots.  Hired a videographer who did an excellent video of a
shore dive with my 80 year old father-in-law on the dive with us.  

Overall Rating

We booked through a Dive Travel agent who was very helpful.  My wife
accompanied me (less experienced as a diver with 30 dives) and my 80 year
old father-in-law came along.  He did great and we had a great time with
good support from the Buddy Dive Shop and crew.  One of their instructors
helped all of us drop a lot of weight which made our diving a lot more
enjoyable and neutral buoyancy achievable.  The boat captains and
divemasters were great and were safety conscious.

The staff at the front desk were not helpful or attentive.  They were
mostly a young group who seemed more interested in socializing than in
helping customers.

We found the trucks and dive through dive shop to be great and it made
shore diving enjoyable.
I'd reccommend Buddy's for newer divers and for people who want to take it
easy, enjoy the dives, see lots of marine life (but not many large
animals/fish.  We did see quite a few eels, sea snakes and large schools of
various fish: durgon, parrot fish, snappers, etc.
